Ethan's Voice
Ethan's Voice | Rachel Carter
1 post | 2 read
How do you begin to tell your story when you can't speak? Ethan lives on the canal. He likes it there. He can go to the pond and catch newts and minnows. He can learn everything he needs to know from books and from his mum. No one there laughs at him because he doesn't talk. Ethan can't remember exactly when he stopped talking or why. It is only when he meets Polly, a girl who has recently moved to the canal, that he begins to wish things were different. Can Ethan find his voice again? Perfect for fans of Mark Haddon, David Almond and Jacqueline Wilson.

Pickpick

I loved this sweet story. Ethan lives on a houseboat and is homeschooled after a traumatic event causes him to stop speaking. He meets Polly, a girl his age whose friendship slowly starts to bring him out of his shell. Good for KS2 and low ability KS3.
